Definitions

  • the disclosure relates to an uninterruptible power supply device of a continuous commercial power supply type.
  • An uninterruptible power supply device of the continuous commercial power supply type compensates for an instantaneous voltage drop or a frequency fluctuation of a system voltage of a commercial power system and is configured, for example, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, in a manner that a power supply part including a storage battery and a parallel inverter is connected to a load in parallel and a switch is provided at a level above them.
  • a power supply part including a storage battery and a parallel inverter is connected to a load in parallel and a switch is provided at a level above them.
  • the conventional uninterruptible power supply device of the continuous commercial power supply type performs only a compensation operation of an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation for the load, and may not perform a compensation operation for other system abnormalities. Further, the system abnormality is taken into consideration only for the load and is not taken into consideration for the energy storage device.
  • Patent Document 1 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-229662
  • the disclosure has been made to solve the above problems, and its main objective is to provide an uninterruptible power supply device capable of responding to various system abnormalities other than a voltage drop including an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation.
  • an uninterruptible power supply device is an uninterruptible power supply device provided between a commercial power system and an essential load and supplies AC power to the essential load.
  • the uninterruptible power supply device includes a power supply part, an open switch, a system abnormality detection part, and a control part.
  • the power supply part has an energy storage device connected to a power line for supplying power from the power system to the essential load.
  • the open switch is provided on a commercial power system side of the power supply part on the power line to open and close the power line.
  • the system abnormality detection part detects a system abnormality which is at least one of a voltage rise, a phase fluctuation, a voltage imbalance, a harmonic abnormality, and a flicker in addition to at least one of a voltage drop including an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation, occurring on the commercial power system side of the open switch.
  • the control part opens the open switch to supply AC power from the power supply part to the essential load when a detected system abnormality is equal to or greater than a tolerance of the essential load or the power supply part for the system abnormality.
  • the system abnormality detection part detects a system abnormality which is at least one of a voltage rise, a phase fluctuation, a voltage imbalance, a harmonic abnormality, and a flicker. Since the open switch is opened when the detected system abnormality is equal to or greater than the tolerance of the essential load or the power supply part for the system abnormality, it is possible to also respond to various system abnormalities other than a voltage drop including an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation.
  • the uninterruptible power supply device of the continuous commercial power supply type can respond to system abnormality elements such as a voltage rise, a phase fluctuation, a voltage imbalance, a harmonic abnormality, and a flicker in addition to a voltage drop including an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation.
  • system abnormality elements such as a voltage rise, a phase fluctuation, a voltage imbalance, a harmonic abnormality, and a flicker in addition to a voltage drop including an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation.
  • the power supply part may perform autonomous operation within a range of a tolerance limit of one of the essential load and the power supply part that has a smaller tolerance for the system abnormality.
  • control part may cause the power supply part to perform a compensation operation for the system abnormality when the system abnormality detected by the system abnormality detection part is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value at which a degree of abnormality is less than the tolerance of the essential load or the power supply part for the system abnormality.
  • a power generation device connected to the power line may be provided separately from the power supply part.
  • an uninterruptible power supply device capable of responding to various system abnormalities other than a voltage drop including an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing a configuration of an uninterruptible power supply device according to a first embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 is a table showing a list of operation states in a system abnormality of the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 3 is a view showing a simulation model of a compensation operation at the time of a phase jump.
  • FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a simulation result when the open switch is not operated.
  • FIG. 8 is a schematic view showing a configuration of an uninterruptible power supply device of another modified embodiment.
  • the uninterruptible power supply device 100 includes a power supply part 2 , an open switch 3 which connects the commercial power system 10 , the power supply part 2 , and the essential load 30 , a system-side voltage detection part 4 which detects a voltage on the commercial power system 10 side of the open switch 3 , a system abnormality detection part 5 which detects a system abnormality from the detection voltage of the system-side voltage detection part 4 , and a control part 6 which opens the open switch 3 according to a detection signal of the system abnormality detection part 5 .
  • the frequency fluctuation detection part 52 detects a frequency fluctuation (frequency increase (OF), frequency decrease (UF)) from the detection voltage of the system-side voltage detection part 4 .
  • the frequency fluctuation is, for example, a stepwise rise or a ramp-like rise/fall.
  • the phase fluctuation detection part 54 detects a phase fluctuation such as a phase jump of 10° from the phase of the detection voltage of the system-side voltage detection part 4 .
  • the system abnormality detection part detects a system abnormality which is at least one of a voltage rise, a phase fluctuation, a voltage imbalance, a harmonic abnormality, and a flicker. Since the open switch 3 is opened when the detected system abnormality is equal to or greater than the tolerance of the essential load 30 or the power supply part 2 for the system abnormality, it is possible to also respond to various system abnormalities other than a voltage drop including an instantaneous voltage drop and a frequency fluctuation.
  • the control part 6 of the second embodiment causes the power supply part 2 to perform a compensation operation for each system abnormality without opening the open switch 3 .
  • the uninterruptible power supply device 100 closes the open switch 3 , and the power supply part 2 and the essential load 30 are connected to the commercial power system 10 via the open switch 3 .
  • the control part 6 maintains the state in which the open switch 3 is turned on. At this time, the power supply part 2 tracks the system abnormality of the commercial power system 10 and continues operating.
  • the control part 6 opens the open switch 3 .
  • the power supply part 2 continues operating within the range of the tolerance limit of one of the essential load 30 and the power supply part 2 that has the smaller system abnormality tolerance (autonomous operation).
  • the uninterruptible power supply device 100 of the second embodiment configured in this manner, in addition to the effect of the first embodiment, it is possible to reduce the frequency of transition to autonomous operation with high running cost.
  • a power generation device (generator) 7 connected to the power line L 1 may be provided separately from the power supply part 2 .
  • the power generation device 7 is connected to the essential load 30 side of the open switch 3 .
  • the open switch 3 is opened when any one of the system abnormalities satisfies the condition.
  • the open switch 3 may also be opened when a combination of two or more system abnormalities satisfies the predetermined condition.
